Item Spotlight: Tom Ford Cat Eye Frames (FT5189)

When you buy something designer, which shouldn’t happen very often if you’re a normal girl like me, you receive the item in a surprisingly cute package. You’re not used to such treatment – It comes in a box, in another box in a paper bag. A little shiny card in the case thanks you for purchasing this genuine item. But does all this packaging add to the value of the item itself? Helllll ya. If fashion isn’t about the packaging, then i don’t know what is.
I’m sitting there in my apartment wearing spectacles (pretentious, much?), completely content with my new purchase, and then this commercial by L’Oreal Paris featuring supermodel Doutzen Kroes comes on. She owns it in those Tom Ford’s Nikita frames!

I should have seriously tried those on…oh well.

Refraction is cool.
Final exams are soon and it’s about time I get to studying! Thanks for taking an interest in my unnecessary expenditures.

The middle of the frame (where it rests on the bridge of your nose is 2.75 inches to the point, making the entire width of the frame 5.5 inches wide. The thickest part of the lens is 1.6 inches.

If you have a big face, you should consider the Nikitas that are shown in the commercial linked above. They’re a lot larger, however they are also more dramatic cat eyes and you must keep this fact in mind.

I stumbled on your page on my search for images of these glasses.
And I usually dont take the time to comment or anything like that,
But I have to say these glasses fit you to a T! They are made for you.
Congrats on your perfect find:)
